Architecture Description Languages (ADL) are a major research theme in the software
architecture community. Although many interesting proposals have been made, they don't …

Although component-based development provides the concepts and mechanisms to
manage complexity in large software development efforts, most teams in practice still have to …

In this paper we propose an integrated approach for managing variabilities in architectural
specifications of software product lines. Our approach combines an aspect-oriented …

Components defined in software architecture have two features: as basic elements of the
architecture, they must conform to the architectural constraints and in the meantime, similar …

Architecture description languages (ADLs) are widely used to describe system architectures.
Bass et. al.(1988) describe the main features at these languages. Components and …

Abstract Architecture description languages play an important role in modelling software
architectures. However, many architecture description languages (ADLs) are either unable …

The research community in the emerging area of software architecture has developed little
consensus over the definition of architecture except that architecture is related to the …

Software architecture research focuses on models of software architectures as specified in
architecture description languages (ADLs). As research progresses in specific areas of …

The software architecture is one of the most crucial artifacts within the lifecycle of a software
system. Decisions made at the architectural level directly enable, facilitate, hamper, or …

This formal research demonstration attempts to present an approach to develop and assess
architecture and component-based systems based on specifying software architecture …
